Tusoteuthis

The Tusoteuthis is a giant squid of the deep ocean. It grabs prey with its tentacles and slowly knocks it out, and a tamed one is a strong underwater fighter that also produces Oil.

Where to find it

Only in very deep water: The Island, The Center, Ragnarok, Valguero and Genesis Part 1 in both games, Astraeos in ASA, and Crystal Isles, Lost Island, Fjordur and Genesis Part 2 in ASE.

Taming

A passive tame that only works while it holds a creature. Ride a sturdy distraction mount, such as a Carbonemys or Mosasaurus, and let it grab that mount. Then swim to its beak and feed it Black Pearls, about 50 per feeding. Other meats and fish give only a tenth of the usual affinity, so feed at least ten at a time. Damage does not reset the progress.

Breeding

Its egg handles a wide temperature range and hatches in about 5 hours. The baby needs about 7.7 days to mature at 1x.

Uses

• Combat: grabs and holds medium and large creatures or players.
• Oil: tamed adults slowly produce Oil in their inventory.
• Saddle: the Tusoteuthis Saddle unlocks at level 91.

Tips

Ink Propulsion gives a speed burst and blinds pursuers. Wild ones drop Black Pearls and Absorbent Substrate.
